Essie Muchi Muchi: Glitter Gradient

I'm one of those people who feels bare without nail varnish; but I still do like to leave my nails natural so they can breathe. I'm quite fortunate because my natural nails are really strong and I hardly ever have a problem with them breaking. I love experimenting with different nail varnishes and I was inspired by Instagram with this look however I changed the base colour. Essie Muchi Muchi is one of my favourite nail varnishes without a doubt, It applies like a dream and it's opaque with 2-3 coats.

I know it's not the best but I really like it and it was really easy to do. I first applied 2 coats of Muchi Muchi and once that dried I applied one thin coat of Silver Streak. Once that dried I went slightly further up and applied another thin coat and I kept going further up and as I went further up I applied more. It was quite difficult to do with this particular glitter polish because it was so opaque. To finish off the look I applied Maybelline 142a (hate when nail varnishes don't have a 'proper' name) at the top of each nail. It took around 20-30 minutes to do but I'm really happy with the outcome.

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend and I hope you enjoyed Valentines day with the ones you love.
